First off - remain calm.

How do you feel right now? Do you still want more of what you already have, or do you want something different? I'm just assessing the severity. If you want something entirely new, it's not that bad yet. If you want more of what you already have ... well it's pretty serious now.

This is the place to talk about it, so don't be afraid to ask for help whenever you feel the need. We're here for you.  :)

I'm feeling a burn for a 16 channel logic analyzer.  But at least I don't have the shakes yet.

Remember quality is remembered long after price is forgotten.
My most regretted purchases have often been cheap rubbish,  they didn't do the job and I didn't like using them.  I'd rather use an old classic piece of test gear than new rubbish.

Only 16?? nope, you need 136 just in case,  and not one of those thin usb logic analyzers. You NEED something professional like this, and its cheap too:

I don't even have one.  Actually, I don't have any bench multimeters.

I don't think it's a sign that my GAS is under control - because I still have a distinct fondness for idea of adding some HP tech to the workbench.

Wallet constrictions seem to be playing a big part - as does the fact that Australia isn't exactly flush with second hand gear - especially when compared with the USA.
